Hey, i need some help

Hola, no hablo mucho ingles, pero alguien puede ayudarme con la instalación del opencpn?? Descargue la app desde el Google play, pero no se como usarlo. Tengo que hacer una derrota desde la Antártida a Argentina.
Me llamó Camila, y tengo 20 y soy de Argentina. Un gusto conocerlos ����

https://opencpn.org/OpenCPN/info/downloadopencpn.html
This is the opencpn site so instructions should be in there somewhere.

Este es el sitio de OpenCPN, por lo que las instrucciones deberían estar allí en alguna parte.

Welcome to CF...

This page lists charts that work on opencpn, some free but not all.

Re: Hey, i need some help

Una App de Google Play se AUTO_instala. Decir si tu has bajado la App - ya esta instalada en tu tableta o movil.


Hay un icono nueva en tu tab/movil - dale un click y la App se abre.


Ponte tus cartas en una carpeta y dale un nombre a ella. eg CARTAS


Ahora en 'las herramientas' en la App dale un click y diriga la App a la carpeta CARTAS. La App va a escanear la carpeta CARTAS y ya estan accesibles en la App.


Bastante igualito igualito como cada otra cosa q se instala en Android.


Para usar las cartas como un 'plotter' tu tableata o movil tiene q tener un gps al bordo, o, si falta - puedes connectar a un gps de red (BT o wifi).


Tambien te permite ver otras cosas - como los barcos que llevan AIS, etc. en la misma carta (la connection sea como arriba - BT o wifi).



+++un saludo y un abrazo,
b.

Re: Hey, i need some help

One thing that is important is that you downloaded the correct version of OpenCPN. There are two in the Google Play store. You want the Dave Register version that is the supported version.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...pencpn.opencpn

The free version is old and not supported.

The link I gave is I believe the latest..

"Download OpenCPN

Read what's new or just begin your download"

Unfortunately, they don’t make a version of the app available for iPhone.
However, ActiveCaptain is a very nice interactive equivalent.

Re: Hey, i need some help

There is no version for iOS because the terms of the Apple Store prevent open software under GPL being distributed...

Camila, ¿has visto el sitio oficial de OpenCPN cuyo enlace te envié? Olvídate de la estafa del monopolio de Google Play.

¿Aún sigues tu pregunta en busca de respuestas o eres un troll?

What's stopping you spending $100 on an Android tablet..
If you can afford a iPhone surely that's within your reach..
